Beyond the intervention: outcomes of CTO PCI
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Discover long-term outcomes and practical insights into chronic total occlusion (CTO) PCI. This session presents real-world registry data, cost-effectiveness analyses, effects of successful revascularisation in reduced ejection fraction and heart failure patients, and specific outcomes in octogenarian populations.

CTO PCI evolution: unlocking new approaches
22 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Unlock new approaches in chronic total occlusion (CTO) PCI with this session highlighting advanced techniques such as tip-in methods when microcatheters fail, support maximization strategies, rotational direction considerations during CTO, and timing of PCI in ACS patients with non-infarct related CTOs.

Why should laser atherectomy be part of your complex PCI algorithm?
21 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
Watch this EuroPCR 2025 session to see how ELCA can make the difference in two challenging cases: a severely calcified, undilatable lesion, and an uncrossable one. Learn how pre- and peri-procedural imaging (CT, IVUS, OCT) supports tailored decision-making, and how ELCA enables safe and effective lesion...

CTO in special clinical scenarios
20 May 2025 – From EuroPCR 2025
This session focuses on the unique challenges of performing CTO interventions in special clinical scenarios, including critical donor artery stenosis, anomalous coronary origins post-TAVI, and complex multivessel disease with limited vascular access. Gain insights into tailored strategies such as retrograde approaches and management after arterial switch...

Innovations and novel strategies in CTO PCI
15 May 2024 – From EuroPCR 2024
This session showcases innovative and novel strategies for the percutaneous treatment of chronic total occlusions (CTO) in the coronary arteries. Attendees will learn about techniques such as subintimal rotational ablation with retrograde guidance, external calcium modification, and the use of intravascular lithotripsy to optimize stenting in...
